## Discrepancy

THE TAILCONE RELEASE CAM IS CLOCKED WRONG AND OUT OF ADJUSTMENT. THIS COULD PREVENT PROPER OPERATION OF THE ESCAPE PATH AND IT IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH 14 CFR PART 121.703. SUMMARY NRC 001-0115:5352-4002/001 00303: ADJUSTED TAILCONE RELEASE MECHANISM CAM REF B717 AMM 53 -52-03. (LP #1927793)
